The Minnesota Commercial Railway has some NEAT and OLD GE locomotives that are in daily service. One of the best places to see them hard at work, is on The Hump, switching out countless numbers of cars each day. We'll see two sets of power working the Hump. One of them being two former Conrail B23-7s, and a B30-7 working HARD pounding the yard leads, and making switch moves. The classic GE chugging sounded wonderful.
We'll get a view of the Minnesota Commercials yard from Transfer Road, in Saint Paul, MN while seeing the B23-7 duo and B30-7 working the hump. With each pull, and shove, they units made some great noise as they went to run 8. While this was going on, The Belt Job arrived from New Brighton with a pair of GE B39-8Es. Tucked away are some the railways unique power, and ALCo RS27, and EMD switcher; these of which will likely never run again.
